Chapter 61

The next morning…

Emmy woke up feeling weak all over. Her body was lethargic and her head was pounding really hard.

As Emmy was about to get up, she realized that something was wrong. She turned her head and was so shocked to see Vince sleeping next to her.

Emmy widened her eyes as her heart beat fast.

Why the hell was Vince sleeping next to her?

Feeling that someone was looking at him, Vince suddenly opened his eyes. He leisurely pulled the duvet down, revealing his tantalizing chest.

He looked at Emmy and chuckled, “You are up?”

Emmy’s hazel eyes widened in shock as she looked at Vince like he was some sought of hooligan. Her voice was hoarse as she asked, “What did you do to me last night?”

Vince frowned when he heard her question. He sat up and rested his head on the head bed, revealing his well shaped abs.

Emmy felt her cheeks heat up at that sight and she could not help but glare at the man. But it was only for a second before her eyes traveled down there. It was as i

    Chapter 62Emmy opened the wardrobe, stunned by what she saw. It was filled with different kinds of clothes, including bras and women's wear. Her face flushed, and she did not dare look at Vince.Vince chuckled upon seeing the blush on Emmy’s face, “My dear wife, it would ideal to go out while wearing some clothes that was why I had those prepared.”Emmy hurriedly picked up some clothes before she rushed to the bathroom and closed the door with a bang.She could not stand Vince’s teasing.When Emmy put on the clothes, she was puzzled. Although the clothes were bought by Vince, they fit her perfectly as if someone had taken her measurements before buying them.She looked down at herself and almost burst into tears.If she continued to insist that nothing happened between her and Vince last night, then she might be fooling herself.He must have measured her when they were….“No… no… stop it already.” Emmy slapped her head to remove the ridiculous thoughts in her mind.After she was done

    Chapter 63“Yes,” Emmy nodded.Emmy was about to leave when Lisa called her again, "Mrs. Young, aren't you and Master Young supposed to take over the villa at Peachwood together today? Master Young just left. Why didn't you go with him?"Emmy blinked in surprise, "What villa at Peachwood? Lisa, I don’t understand?"Lisa saw her confusion and realized that Master Young must have said nothing to her.She kindly said, "Yesterday Master Young brought you home. When he saw the wounds on your shoulder, he got so angry that he suspended all cooperation with the Sharma family right away. Mr. Sharma and Mrs. Sharma came to make an apology in the rain. Then, Master Young fiercely disciplined them. In the end, Mr. Sharma agreed to give you the villa at Peachwood."Emmy was dumbstruck. The images of Jonathan and Nina coming to apologize flooded her mind. She never expected that the aloof and arrogant Nina would humiliate herself like that.Did Vince do that to avenge her?"Thanks, now I know."Em

    Chapter 64After Emmy left, the two girls rushed to help Velma up.Velma pushed them away in annoyance, "You're useless! Why did you stand by while I was being hit by that bitch?"The girls retracted their hands in frustration. This was their first time dealing with such a situation. Emmy seemed weak, but her actions were brutally aggressive. Anyone would be scared of someone harsher than themselves.Velma, upset, began to cry. She pulled out her phone and immediately made a call, "Dad... I-I was bullied at school!"...Vince gave her a deep gaze then turned his head away, "You're not completely ungrateful."Seeing that his mood had improved, Emmy suddenly thought that Vince had a good temper.That morning, she had made him angry, but he didn't ignore her. Instead, he promptly replied to her messages and even agreed to accompany her to the supermarket. He even drove to the campus to pick her up. Such a man with a good temperament was rare these days. However, it was a pity that he did

    Chapter 65After dinner, Emmy sat contentedly on the sofa. She noticed Vince sitting beside her and smiled, "How was it? I'm not a bad cook, am I?" Vince nodded, "Hmm, not bad."Emmy saw Lisa approaching, leaned on Vince, and asked playfully, "Who cooks better, me or Lisa?"Vince looked at her. She was smiling like an adorable little kitten he raised his eyebrow and smirked, "Of course, you cook better."Emmy was embarrassed, she pulled back her hand and pouted, "You're so tactless! Lisa is here Can't you just say both of us cook well?"Vince reached out and Lisa handed over a big bag of snacks "Ha ha, Missus, when Master Young said that you are a better cook, he was just trying to please you. There is no reason for me to feel unhappy."Emmy laughed awkwardly and changed the subject, "Let's watch some TV shows. We've got nothing better to do."After a glance at Emmy and Vince, Lisa returned to her room, beaming happily as she did not want to be the third wheel.These two had been apa

    Chapter 66"Emmy, you lowly b*tch!"Velma's eyes were red, it was a clear indication that she had been crying. With her shoulders shaking, she looked utterly wronged."You think you've won by manipulating public opinion and driving me out of school? I'll have you know, my father is the chairman of the Collins Corporation. I came to study here just to pass the time. A diploma means nothing to me!""But you, a worthless poor girl. I'll make it impossible for you to find a job in this entire city!"Emmy was completely confused. What was this about public opinion and kicking her out of school? She hadn't done anything like that.At this moment, one of Emmy's classmates, who previously had a fair relationship with Emmy, pulled her sleeve and showed her a video on the phone."Someone got the surveillance video of Velma bullying female classmates in school and posted it online. It has gone viral. Everyone is cursing her for bullying classmates. The school probably has expelled her under the

    Chapter 67Emmy obediently sat down on the sofa. Vince gently applied the ice pack to her face, "Say something if it hurts." Emmy's face was already numb. It was impossible for her to feel anything at this moment.She only felt the ice pack on her face was very comfortable.Staring intently at Vince with her hazel eyes, Emmy discovered that although his face was still gloomy and his words were not friendly, rather commanding, his actions were very gentle.She pouted, somewhat sullenly said, "Aren't you angry? Why are you still taking care of me?"Vince looked at her coldly, "Being angry is one thing, but I can't just ignore you."The harsh tone remained, but Emmy's heart inexplicably skipped a beat.That feeling of anger mixed with indulgence, made her feel somewhat confused and excited.She didn't know if it was her illusion, but she felt as if she was dating Vince...Her mind was in a mess. She could only see Vince in front of her. Her mind was also full of him. The handsome face re

    Chapter 68Emmy blinked, feeling that Vince's words made some sense.She was already running late for school because she had spent time covering the finger marks on her face that hadn't completely faded Considering that, she didn't resist any further. She opened the car door, got in, took the mask from Vince's hand, and put it on.Seeing her put the mask on, Vince smiled slightly. He looked at them in the rearview mirror, "Don't you think we look like a couple this way?" Following his gaze, Emmy saw their faces wearing matching masks in the rearview mirror. But it seemed like something was missing.As she was thinking that, Vince took out a pair of women's sunglasses and put them on Emmy.After putting them on, he looked in the rearview mirror again. This time, he was pleased, "Now it seems even more like it." Looking at their reflections in the mirror, Emmy had to admit they did look like a couple.But why?Why did Vince drive her to school like this? No matter how she thought about

Yesterday they were still talking behind your back in school, and today you've brought your boyfriend to the school gate to shut them up. You are so cool!""I suddenly admire you so much! No wonder you said you weren't afraid of anything yesterday. You had a ready solution to shut them up!"Emmy was a little taken aback. She suddenly seemed to understand Vince's actions today.So he drove her to school in such a flashy car and called out her name on purpose, just to support her and keep those people's mouths shut?Vince wanted everyone to know that she wasn't being kept by an old man, but was in a romantic relationship with a young and handsome rich guy.In that case, no one in school would dare to gossip about Emmy anymore.After all, who among the school's students would dare to cross someone even big shots like Benjamin were afraid of?Feeling sweet, Emmy smiled a little.

    Chapter 163“Emmy, is dad really alive?” Emmy’s brother asked over the phone.“Yes, Dave, but he lost his memories after waking up. Now, he only recognizes Lynn as his daughter.”Dave was shocked. He knew how important their father was to Emmy. He could just imagine the state she was in right now.“Emmy, I really don’t know what to say to you. I know that you have been waiting for the moment when you will reunite with dad again, I just did not expect that Lynn would be so shameful and do something so disgusting.”“Dave, it is okay. My graduation is coming soon. Will you be present?”“Of course, sis, I am almost done here. Once I come back, I want to find a job so that I can be able to take care of you.”“What are you talking about? I am your older sister, so I am the one who is supposed to be taking care of you and not the other way round.”“Emmy, wait for me to come back. I will make sure that I save you from Vince’s clutches. Just wait a little longer, okay?”Hearing her brother, Em

Her father was still alive, but unfortunately, he did not remember her. He even thought that she was a villain's daughter.“What are you thinking about?” Vince's voice sounded. His voice was the most beautiful thing that Emmy would wish to listen to every day.“I don’t know how, but I want everything that I have experienced for the past few days to just go away. I want things to go back to how it was.”“Come, let us go home. I will help you relieve your stress.”“Really? What will you do?”“You will know when we reach home, okay?”Although the ride home was filled with silence, it was peaceful. Emmy rested her head on Vince’s shoulder, and she soon dozed off.“Tom, slow down the car.”“T

    Chapter 161When Emmy left the study room, she did not see Vince around. She did not want to linger around; she immediately headed downstairs.Seeing her come down, Lynn approached her. She had wanted to go and eavesdrop on their conversation, but with Vince standing at the door like knight, she did not dare.“Emmy, have you finished telling your side of the story?”Emmy looked at her without saying anything. Her reaction was enough to tell Lynn that she had failed.“So, did Dad, Grandpa, and Grandma believe you?”“Lynn, when the time comes, don’t say that I did not warn you. Just pray hard that dad does not regain his memories in this lifetime, or else…”“Or else what, Emmy?”“Nothing. Enjoy while it lasts.”Lynn wanted to say something, but Emmy had already left. She gritted her teeth as her eyes turned cold. There was no way she was going to allow Leo to regain her memories. It would be great if he died soon.“Who are you planning on killing?”A deep voice sounded, which made Lynn’s

What if her father refused to listen to her and chased her away? What would she do?With so many thoughts swirling in her mind, Emmy found herself outside the study room.“Honey, can you wait for me outside? I…”“It is okay, I understand.” Vince nodded as he touched Emmy’s hair. He had no intentions of going inside, anyway.“Thank you.”“I am right here; don’t be afraid.:The moment Emmy entered the study room, she felt stifled by the somber mood.Old Master Roberts was sitting on his chair while Leo was in his wheelchair. As for Old Mrs. Roberts, she was sitting on the leather sofa in the study room, her gaze glued to Emmy.Emmy looked at them and respectfully bowed her head. After what had happened earlier, she had no idea how to face her dad.Old Master Roberts looked at her and asked in a cold voice, “What are you doing here

    Chapter 159As the celebration was going on inside, a sleek Lamborghini quietly parked outside the gates of the Roberts family.Emmy had calmed down a lot, and even the tears on her face had dried up.“Darling, why are you not driving inside?” Emmy asked when she saw that Vince had stopped all of a sudden.Vince took a deep breath before he drove towards the gate. Although he dreaded this place, and it was the last place he would ever want to come, for the sake of his wife’s peace of mind, he had to drive through the gates.They were stopped at the gate, but after hearing Vince’s identity, the security quickly let them in.The Roberts family elders and Leo were also informed of their arrival, and they quickly gathered in the study room.“Leo, you said that you had met Emmy earlier. What exactly did she say?”“Nothing much, Mom. I don’t know, but the moment I saw her, I felt a jolt in my heart, something that I did not feel the day I saw Lynn.”“Of course, it is normal for you to feel

    Chapter 158Outside the hotel…Emmy stood before her father, feeling nervous.“Dad, is that really you? I have been looking for you all over. I thought that I lost you.”Thinking about everything that Emmy had done to him, Leo looked at her coldly, “Who are you calling dad? Emmy, when will you stop being pretentious?”Emmy’s eyes widened in shock. She had not expected such a response from her father. “Dad, what are you talking about? I am your dearest daughter, Emmy. Don’t you remember me?”“It is true that I don’t remember. But I know all the despicable things you did to me. You can drop your innocent act, it is very disgusting.”Emmy cried. She could not believe her ears. Was this the same Leo with whom they had been through a lot together? Was he the same father who had always patted her back and told her to never give up in life, that good things took time?Vince had gone to the car. He returned and saw Emmy crying, and his face instantly turned cold.“Honey, what happened?”Emmy

The moment she pressed the last key, he started to clap hard as he happily cheered.His claps brought everyone back to their senses, and there was thunderous applause all over the room.Even Leo clapped hard as a faint smile appeared on his withered face. He did not want to be told who Emmy’s teacher was. She had really mastered everything. She was even on a higher level than he was when he was at her age.Lynn almost beat her lips off. She had been excited when Emmy had started to play the piano. She even thought that Emmy was handing the victory over to her. She had not expected this turn of events.Emmy was a witch! Now, even her dad was clapping for her.He was even smiling, and she had not seen him smile for her after she was done playing.She clenched her hands tightly, her long nails digging into her scalp that it almost bled.She had planned on using the fact that Emmy copied her song to disqualify from the playing the duet.

It was the kind of emotion a father would feel towards his child after not seeing her for a long time.Even after everything that Emmy had done to him, why did his heart palpitate when he saw her, and why did he not have negative feelings about her?Could Lynn have been mistaken?Anyway, since she dared bully his daughter, he was going to teach her a lesson.
